RESOLVED: Can't reach plex.tv when under HDA DNS
Posted: Fri Oct 03, 2014 6:20 am
Hi Everyone, i am having a bit of an odd problem. I can't seem to navigate to plex.tv or https://plex.tv when i am under the HDA DNS. If i restart my server and refresh my client computer to get an ip address from my router then i can get to it but when I am under the HDA DNS i get redirected to the hda login screen. http://plex.tv/user_sessions/new
The same thing happens with other random strings that are not in the http.d/01-platform.conf file. For example i fully expect "search", "setup", "home" and "help" to redirect to the main hda login however there are others such as "hello" that almost get redirected. "Almost" meaning that in Chrome i get the drop down that says "Did you mean to go to http://hello ?" If i click it then i get redirected to the hda login screen. These messages and redirects havn't been an issue, i just ignore it and go on my way however but since i can no longer access plex.tv i can't access any of the sub directory including forums and downloading the new clients. This doesn't just have issues with accessing websites either. When i try to sign in with a plex client on my network i can't access it either so i can't access my queue.
To give a full background i should say that i did have a "plex" web app that redirected to hda:32400/web so that when i wanted to change settings or access the plex server interface i could just type plex into a web browser. However even when i had this i didn't have an issue accessing plex.tv.
Since i noticed this issue i have since removed the web app and the conf files from the httpd directory and i have also deleted the dns record of "plex" however i am still having the issue. Any direction into this would be appreciated.
